International Youth Day
International Youth Day is celebrated each year on the 12th of August, to bring attention to youth issues and celebrate their potential.
The theme of International Youth Day in 2022 is “Transforming Food Systems: Youth Innovation for Human and Planetary Health", focusing on the issues, and highlighting that no effort could be successful without the participation of youth. With the support of young people, world leaders can achieve their targets.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

38.4% Yes - get rid of the clock changes

59.9% No, I enjoy it
